And that, my FRiend, is why many people are skeptical, and that was my point.
***Rossi has a terrible reputation. Those 7 scientists knew that, so they were extra careful to check & double check their results. In this way, the fact that Rossi is untrustworthy lends more credence to the results.
As in the phrase “A stopped clock is right twice a day”, it is possible that though continued work, Rossi has stumbled onto a concoction that works consistently. After all, Thomas Edison FAILED to invent a ‘consistently working’ light bulb for years.
***I think that’s very close to what happened here.
As far as trusting these 7 scientists, I don’t know them personally,
***That never seems to be a requirement for other scientific endeavors. Only LENR.
but it would seem that Rossi has worked on other projects with at least one of them, and those projects turned out to be scams. Is this not true?
***No.
Since GLOBAL WARMING EXPERT SCIENTISTS have made claims that are proving to be false, why would the average individual trust a few more scientists from Sweden?
***Because the measurements are so simple: power and temperature. Have you ever used a multimeter? A thermometer? When measuring your child’s temperature, how possible is it that you’d consistently make a measurement of 150degF? With several other people present... And then you throw out that thermometer and get a new one, same result. Even with this analogy, you are only supposedly making a mistake of 50%, not 10X.
The scientists you listed , on the average, are no more qualified in their fields than the GW scientists.
***They are qualified to make power measurements.
Basically, I am saying it’s hard to trust anyone these days when everyone seems to be compromising their integrity by SELLING OUT to the highest bidder. That is the reality that surrounds us that we must deal with.
***Then you’re stuck with an expanding conspiracy theory.
You may trust them, but, as you can see, others are not so quick to just blindly accept their ‘results’.
***Do you trust that the anomalous heat effect has been replicated more than 14,700 times, before Rossi ever came on the scene? These 7 scientists are putting their reputations on the line. Do you trust them to be able to read a multimeter and a thermometer?
No. If it had, don't you think someone would have figured out 'how' this is working?
you are avoiding these questions
